Freelancing as a game developer is how I started out in fact. Specifically, I was developing web games for clients that wanted to add some games to their website (ie. these clients weren't game companies themselves). Something similar to that could probably work these days too: besides web games, you could probably offer freelance game dev on mobile too. I also hear there is a growing market for bespoke VR visualizations, contracting to architecture firms and such.
On a related tangent, you should checkout my book Unity in Action since it is explicitly intended for people who already know how to program but are new to game development, such as web devs.
Here are some good books I recommend to you.
They can be read on the go as well, though they are mostly project based, therefore they require you to do the projects on the computer while you are reading. But of course you can read it anywhere and then later when you are near the computer, you can attempt to recreate the little games they show. (thats what I did with the first book on this list)
​
I suggest Unity (larger pool of resources and books over unreal) and two books to get started.
I started by reading this (now obsolete) book back in 1999 or something.
Windows Game Programming for Dummies
Once I knew the basics, I started to learn different technologies over the years: OpenGL, Mobile Java, iOS development and most recently Unity. I personally prefer books, and here is a good one to get you started with Unity, which makes everything easier, but with higher expectations.

[XPOST] I'm the author of Unity in Action, a popular book about game programming. AMA!
The 2nd edition of Unity in Action has just been released and some people have asked me questions about the writing and publishing process. Here's proof of identity.
I'm not sure how many questions there will be, so I don't have a specific time limit in mind. I'll probably just keep answering questions until they stop getting asked.
NOTE - This thread is just a cross-post, so ask questions in the thread on r/gamedev:
